My BMW story continous

One day I saw an advertise in the local newspaper of an 2002 for sale (1000skr...)! I just had to see it. When I got there I saw that the car was an genuine Luxus-model and in very good shape. I bought it for only 1000skr and sold it too cheap a few months later for 8000skr. After I had sold it, many people phoned from from Denmark, Norway and even England and wanted to buy it. But I had already sold it...

The next BMW was a really big beemer. 733iA from -82. The comfort in this old car was outstanding. Very rusty inunder and in the trunk. The fueltank (100litres) was leaking (very funny the first time I was filling it.... 10 litres on the ground). All the rust was fixed and the tank was changed.  When the enginge started to take more oil than fuel, a carchange was the only thing to do.

When I was in Rimbo to buy spear parts to my red 02 Luxus, I saw a red Alpina in his garage. And he let my testdrive it....! What an enging, roadfeeling and the gearbox.... Everything was superb! It was for sale. He was building on his house so he needed the money. At that time I hadn´t got the money... A few month later when the BMW club Schweden´s magazine came, I saw an ad about the car. Now the economy was different and the Alpina B6 2,8 -86 came in my ownership for only 60000skr.

I had been driving a very old Volvo to work for a couple of years and wanted a BMW instead. I found a 520i -84 for only 5000skr. A very fine car for that cind of money.
I bought it in december ´99 and the only thing that I´ve had to fix (but service) is the exhaust-gasket.
The engine starts evertime, and it goes so well!
